Simmons Bank Liberty Stadium is approaching the first phase of its multi-million dollar renovation, the University of Memphis announced.
They are scheduled to begin in May and finish before the upcoming football season.
The first phase, projected to cost between $8-10, will focus mainly on renovating the East Side Suite Level Two for media.
“Due to stadium construction, all West Side suites, a portion of East Side suites, the Stadium Club and all non-chairback (bleacher) seats between sections 129-132 and 101-109 will be unavailable for the 2024 and 2025 football seasons,” the university said in a press release. “Stadium capacity during the 2024 and 2025 Memphis Football seasons is anticipated to be in the low-30,000s, and capacity after renovations are complete is estimated to be approximately 50,000.”
